Fish fin?

Found this by Southfield Road, Lathrup Village, Michigan more than 50 years ago, so it could have come in limestone used for road construction.  Is it a fish fin (as I assumed at the time) or perhaps a crinoid crown?

Fun find... not a fish fin, but a coral fossil.

I don't think it's a coral, this bit in particular looks like fractured shell. So more likely brachiopod or bivalve.
